HEART RATE MONITOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Thoroughly dry the heart rate monitor after each
use. The heart rate monitor is activated when the
electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate moni-
tor is put on; the heart rate monitor shuts off when it
is removed and the electrode areas are dried. If the
heart rate monitor is not dried after each use, it may
remain activated longer than necessary.
• Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place.
Do not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag
or other container that may trap moisture.
• Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time. Do not expose
the heart rate monitor to temperatures above 122°
Fahrenheit (50° Celsius) or below 14° Fahrenheit
(-10° Celsius).
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the transmitter
when using or storing the heart rate monitor.
• Clean the transmitter using water and mild soap—
never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The
chest strap may be hand washed and air dried.
• If the heart rate monitor
does not function prop-
erly, the CR 2032 bat-
tery may need to be
replaced. To replace the
battery, locate the bat-
tery cover on the back of
the transmitter. Insert a
coin into the slot in the
cover and turn the cover counterclockwise to the
“open” position. Remove the cover.
Remove the old battery
and insert a new CR
2032 battery, making
sure that the battery is
turned so the writing is
on top. In addition, make
sure that the rubber gas-
ket is in place in the
transmitter. Replace the
battery cover and turn it
to the closed position.
